13

What is Martial Arts?

Where it all began...

The History of Martial Arts can be traced

Body, Mind & Spirit.

back over 3000 years to the Vedas, which are a large body of knowledge texts from th e ancient Indian subcontinent.

Why is Martial Arts relevant?

It teaches honor and respect.

It helps you to gain confidence and boost self-esteem.

It improves your mental and physical strength.

14

Thesis Proposition “Promoting competitive martial arts culture in India through design of a specialized academy with facilities and infrastructure, which accentuate the aspirations of the institution.”

Need Identification

India as a country lacks a culture of sports. There are two aspects to the absence of a culture of sports: Lack of knowledge for Sports as a Career.

The lack of infrastructure for specific kinds of sports.

16

TAEKWONDO The contest area is a flat, non-slip mat, which can be installed on a platform 0.6m-1m high from the base. The colour scheme of the mat’s surface must avoid giving a harsh reflection or tiring the contestant’s or spectator’s eyesight.

There are two shapes used on competition. In both shapes the contest area and safety area are different colours.

Square shape The contest area is a 8m x 8m square with a safety area of 2m to 4m. The total size of the competition area which includes the contest area and safety area is 10m x 10m to a maximum of 12m x 12m.

Octagonal shape The competition area is either 10m x 10m or 12m x 12m.

The central octagonal contest area measures 8m in diameter and each side of the octagon is 3.3m long.

Lines and Positions At the start of the match the contestants are at two opposing points, 1m apart with the referee is positioned at 1.5m. The position of the 1st judge is 0.5m from the corner of the outer lines. Similarly, the positions of the 2nd judge, 3rd judge is 0.5m outward from the outer lines. The recorder

WRESTLING Wrestling is a combat sport involving grappling type techniques, competitors try to use throws, locks and grapples in order to secure a superior position over their opponent.

The Mat A new FILA approved mat has a 9m diameter and a 1.5m border and is mandatory in Olympic Games, Championships and Cups. For Olympic Games and World Championships, warm up and training mats must also be approved by FILA.

Mat Layout A red band, one metre wide, is drawn along the circumference on the inside of the 9m circle. This is known as the red zone.

The 1 meter wide central circle placed within the mat inside the red circle is the central wrestling area, 7m in diameter. The protection area is 1.5m wide.

The diagonally opposite corners of the mat are marked in the wrestler’s colours, red and blue. The covering and free space around the mat is 2m. The colour of the protection area is different than the mat.

For all Olympic Games, the mat is installed on a platform not higher than 1.1m or lower than 0.50m.

28

JUDO Judo is a Japanese modern martial art and combat sport. The objective is to either throw or takedown an opponent to the ground.

Competition area The competition area is a minimum of 14m x 14m and is divided into two zones. The inner zone / contest area is either 8m x 8m or 10m x 10m. The outer safety area is about 3m wide.

In adjoining competition areas, the common or shared safety area is 4m.

A free zone, a minimum of 50cm, must be maintained around the entire competition area.

Tatamis The competition area is covered by a Tatamis or similar material.

The Tatamis is made of pressed foam and is 1m x 2m or 1m x 1m.

Platform The platform is optional and is made of solid wood. It measures 18m x 18m. When using a platform, it is recommended that the safety area is a minimum of 4m wide around the competition area.

BOXING Boxing is a sport in which two participants of similar weight fight each other in a series of one-to-three-minute intervals.

The bout takes place in a roped area called a ring.

Project Planning

Reason of choice The National Martial Arts Academy are the patrons for the project therefore, visiting their institute gave me insight into their aspirations for the project.

Inferences Multiple visits to the facility, gave me the opportunity to understand firsthand the core functional processes of a martial arts institute/combat centre based on user groups along with the sequences and flow of activities as per time periods.

Architects: PTM of Australia and Kapoor & Associates of Delhi Location: New Delhi, India Owned by: Govt. of NCT Delhi Area: 16.5 acres (6.7 ha) Project Year: 2010

36

Project Planning :

Reason of choice Presence of spectator seating as part of a building ( Large indoor sports hall) One of the most recent sports facilities in Delhi, which has been constructed keeping in mind the sustainability aspect of the project.

Inferences The design of the spectator seating as part of the building acts as a raised plinth to the building as well as to create connections with other functions of the program.

Indira Pariyavaran Bhawan, Delhi Architects: DPAP Location: New Delhi, India Owned by: Ministry of Environment and Forest conservation Area: 9565 m2 Project Year: 2013

38

Project Planning :

Reason of choice The site management and landscaping also contribute to a water-efficient site.

A state-of-the-art three level parking is provided to cater to peak load during office hours.

The building is also planned to provide ‘priority passages for the pedestrians’, decreased UHI.

Inferences: The window shading and the courtyard openings are designed to reduce summer heat gain and also to allow in the winter sun. Most of the fenestration and habitable areas are located on the outer periphery, which permits good daylighting and view of the scenic surroundings.

A large number of spaces including passages and lobbies are developed as nonconditioned spaces with provision for natural cooling and shading through stone jaalis.

Reason of choice Courtyard is the only open space in the college which is well linked to the rest of the college. It is a grassy lawn, used by students to relax during their spare time. There is a large garden the south side of the college which is linked through entrance hall Strong contextual language to adhere to, as the case study is in the same area as the project.

“It is never too late to learn a new thing or make a new beginning”

INFERENCE: The city is small and has a strong grid like character in terms of Urban Planning.

Project and the city

Geology The subsurface formation comprises of beds of boulders, pebbles, gravel, sand, silt, clays and some kankar. The area is drained by two seasonal rivulets viz. Sukhna Choe in the east and Patiala-Ki-Rao Choe in the west. The central part forms a surface water divide and has two minor streams. The stream passing through the central part is called N-Choe and the other is Choe Nala which initiates at Sector 29.

Climate Chandigarh falls under Koeppen’s CWG category i.e. it has cold dry winter, hot summer and sub-tropical monsoon. Evaporation

Demographics Population

usually exceeds precipitation and the weather is generally dry.

The area experiences four seasons: 1.

Summer or hot season (mid-March to Mid-June)

2.

Rainy season (late-June to mid-September);

3.

Post monsoon season (mid September to mid-November);

4.

Winter (mid November to mid-March).

Employment

The dry spell of summer is long but with the occasional drizzles or thunder storms.

The variation in annual rainfall on year to year basis is appreciable i.e. 700 mm to 1200 mm. The 20 year average rainfall for Chandigarh is 1100.7 mm.

INFERENCE: Rainwater harvesting is a feasible option since

Evergreen trees on the south and west sides afford the best protection from the setting summer sun and cold winter winds.

Strengths

Opportunity

88

Weaknesses •

Context has Rigid Architectural style of Corbusier.

•

Entry/exit for vehicular traffic is allowed on only one side of the site.

•

Maintaining comfortable temperatures in the green areas through shading for human comfort is a challenge.

•

Limited flexibility in site planning due to mass and area required for tournament facility.

•

Planning water features in project is difficult due to climate and maintenance problems.

Threats •

The climate is tropical and difference between minimum and maximum temperature is very high, appropriate measures

to be taken.

•

Parking Requirements for visitors are high.

•

Air conditioning and lighting loads for the sports hall must be managed appropriately.

They liked the idea of the zen garden symbolising spirituality in central space of the project and shaded access to every building in the form of the pentagonal corridor.

The use of different ora for the landscaping also intrigued them alot.

Overall they liked the scheme.
